All feels a bit discombobulated at the moment. Aye. Comms from the club havent been great during pre-season. Of course some things need to be kept under wraps, like transfer negotiations etc, but simple things like who is fit and who isnt should be fairly straightforward. Also with the World Cup and everything else going on, media focus is elsewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orinoco Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago Just away to Swansea for record fee according to the record. Thats our creative spine gone, ie Watt Slattery and Just. AJ is on a hiding to nothing. I feel sorry for him, as he will get the flack. Whilst expected the clubs approach to this pre season has been niave and shocking. Nowhere near enough incomming players. Perhaps we have written europe off as there is no way our squad is big enough to deal with europe and league. Money in bank is great, but we are back to stage 1 again, in having to rebuild and have at present a very weakened team that, looks at this point, will struggle at the bottom end of the league.

Once Maswanhise goes the club could be sitting on between £10 to £14 million would the fans accept say £6 million being used to rebuild the main stand?

wellfan Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago We should be selling, reinvesting in the future, growing sustainably, and playing entertaining football. Rinse and repeat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably wouldnt need to, a new stand could be "tapered" into the corner similar to two stands at Easter Road and one at Rugby Park. Id make part of any plan to include a new roof on the Hunter Stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The POD is on life support now. Doing nothing or very little is simply not an option. The choice facing the board is to demolish and replace it or move to a new stadium. No easy decision.

That’s pretty much where I’m at. It’ll certainly remain that way without several more significant signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago We need to spend large sums of money on infrastructure, but the team on the park badly needs reinforced and time is against us. We simply cannot afford to lose the momentum generated last season. The fans now need some good news for a change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt that would be feasible as it would block natural light to the houses already in place there and was AFAIR one of the reasons it wasn't completed like that in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago Jesus Christ I hope we have someone coming in next few days that looks creative cause we dont have nothing on that front. Like a few folk said AJ is really up against it from the off he will get time from the board but due to last seasons exploits folk will be back to foaming at the mouths,hanging over the boards again. We need bodies now and we need them pronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star sail Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago So far neither Just or Watt have gone to the OF. It really must be a copy and paste that goes on the front of every Scottish media transfer story. I suspect that JT will not be Glasgow bound either. I am still going £10 mill for Just. Smashed sounds like £5 mill + £5 mill to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted 18 hours ago Report Share Posted 18 hours ago I''m not sure what "smashed" means. Until I read anything reliable otherwise, I'll assume it £5m up front + spurious add ons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think now would be a perfect time for the Chairman to address the fans and steady the good ship fanbase. No need for panic and no need to go into great detail but just a wee pep talk to sustain last season's momentum. We've heard plenty from departing players' agents and buying clubs about our players but nothing from our own club. Time for some leadership. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellsince75 Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago Sounds like cracking business for us and glad it’s not dragging on . ideally sort the TW situation out and that should be all outgoing sorted . we could do with a couple of headline signings.
